Finding these ingredients in the US
- Perilla LeafKorean markets only, sometimes labeled 'sesame leaves'. Shiso looks similar but tastes different — there is no true substitute.
- Chili PowderLook for 'gochugaru' (Korean chili flakes) at Korean or Asian markets. Crushed red pepper is sharper and hotter — use about half if substituting.
- Plum ExtractKorean green-plum syrup (maesil-cheong), from Korean markets or online. A little honey plus a splash of rice vinegar is the usual stand-in.
- King Oyster MushroomKing oyster mushrooms are at Asian markets and many supermarkets. Portobello stems give a similar meaty bite.
- Shiitake MushroomFresh shiitake are in most supermarket produce sections; rehydrated dried ones give even deeper flavor.
